My daughter and her family will be meeting us in London. They have 4 children from 9 months to 12 years. They will not be bringing a car seat. What is the best way to get them from the Heathrow airport to W. Kensington area? I don't think they are ready for the subway.
Thank you!
You might look into a car service that can send a van to pick them up.
You have too many for a taxi. A couple of options. Two taxis but that can be expensive. Dad and older kids go by the Tube and mom and younger ones go by taxi. A little cheaper. Or as suggested earlier arrange for a driver with van for everyone. Not an inexpensive solution but most convenient.
We used Blackberry Cars,Heathrow to Westminster for 2, 30 pounds . They have a website. We found them on this site.
Here's guidance on legal requirements for car seats in taxis etc

While I don't usually recommend the hotel options bc they can be a bit pricey, are in staying in a hotel and, if so, what does your hotel offer? Have you determined there is no airport shuttle from your accommodations?
